A Day in Jim Thorpe

Early in November, we were all feeling the desperate need to just get out of our house and do some exploring. I had been really wanting to go out to the Pocono's mountains since they were so close and check it out. My brother-in-law, who was staying with us at the time, suggested going to Jim Thorpe. So, we made a little itinerary and went to check it out. The town was very cute. We didn't get any pictures of the town itself, but it had all of the small, touristy shops that you'd expect to see, as well as a cool train station (Skyler heaven). We had lunch and got ice cream at a little ice cream shop. The best part of the day in my opinion though was going to a small lake park just outside the city. The kids honestly could have been content to just throw rocks in the lake all day, and the weather could not have been more beautiful. It was a very fun day, and the break we all really needed.





Jayda likes to pose for the camera, this is how she insisted I take her picture.

Oh how I love these two!
